Production Notes

Domaine LUCIEN & FANNY ROCAULTBased in Saint Romain, Lucien's family have owned these parcels for centuries. The Hautes Côtes de Beaune offer a great value as the exposition is optimal (south-southeast) and it captures the morning doe coming down from the plateau. As if growing vines & making wine wasn't enough, Lucien revived his family's heritage by growing wheat on that very plateau, just behind Saint-Romain.Needless to say that his approach is very unique and only shared by a handful of producers in Burgundy.

About the Wine

Based in Saint-Romain, the Rocault family have owned these Hautes Côtes de Beaune parcels for centuries; their south-southeast exposure catches the cool morning air off the plateau. Lucien even revived the family tradition of growing wheat just behind the village — an unusually holistic approach for Burgundy.
